So what do you think? Clearly it’s a way off the Tesla Autopilot but it does some parts a bit better. The more competition the better 👍🏽 (no this wasn’t paid, you all asked for other autopilot like systems on the channel)
Tesla Driver yes also try other ones but at the end of the video try to give some conclusions and say if the system you tested is better than autopilot or not (and when you will have tested more you could also compare each other)
Wasn"t paid, but you certainly try too hard not to say something negative about it. Be brutally honest about these, otherwise they will remain as unimpressive as they are. Competition is better, but except for Tesla, nobody is actually putting any effort into this.
We have an edition one, have to say it's much less scary to drive than the Tesla's. Thing is both systems are really assistants, Audi set the expectation right, it's there to reduce fatigue and not be an autopilot.
Tesla are trying to convince people it's an auto pilot when really it's just a very good assistant. As mentioned in the video, you think the Tesla knows what it's doing when in reality is only really a little better than what Audi and BMW have.
FYI, I'm not anti Tesla, if it wasn't for them we probably wouldn't have a slew of EVs coming out now.
Just working in many startups and knowing the mentality behind software in these companies, I wouldn't put your life in the hands of Audi, Tesla, etc for many many years. Until we have true fully conscious ai these systems are just glorified helpers.
Not going to lie as a tsla shareholder i was getting nervous reading the title of this video lol 😅
I don't care for the vague operation of it. Either be in charge or don't. I haven't tried it myself but it seems so wishy washy that it offers no cognitive ease over simply driving on your own. It's like the limpest of hands on the steering wheel and you would be better off just driving on your own. Speed control aside. And what you classified as a sharp turn was but the faintest of curvatures and it gave up :)
And perhaps most importantly, is there expectation of improvement over time or is it a set system only to improve on the next model?
Rip pigeon, you will be missed dearly😔
You should drive a Tesla and other assisted cars on the same road and then do a side by side comparison.
Indeed
I add... and then count "disengagements" for each of them and compare in a table (like California dmv disengagement report for autonomous cars Waymo, Cruise exc..)
I would like to see you drive a model 3 on this same route please
FSD only works in the US
FYI - You did not engage in the *Lane Centering* feature while in Adaptive Cruise. You activate it by clicking the button at the end of the Turn Signal stalk, and you’ll know it’s on bc you will see two green inward pointing arrows next to the green lanes. That”s probably why your car is “bouncing around”. Just wanted to make sure people knew the full capabilities of the adaptive cruise / auto drive feature.
Also those are capacitative steering wheels. No “Pressure” needed, just need to touch it lightly and it will detect your hands are back on the steering wheel.
Watching the range drop 6 miles in 2 miles of travel is not a good feeling.
@@nicomarino96 that makes no sense. A mile is a measurement of distance not an estimated ammount of time a battery will last
He probably had some in-city ranges before he went outside town where the range drops from the higher speeds.
The smooth braking and acceleration and the better use of the speed limit detection are the areas in which it impresses.
Issues which could easily be remedied with an update on Teslas ?
I would assume it would not be that hard to implement smooth braking/acceleration and speed limit compliance.
Whether as an option to choose from or just as standard software update.
The OTA Updates will allow the Tesla to improve much easier but the question remains about the points made as the speed limits has been an issue for ages and if fixing the speed adjustments were easy why would they have not done it straight away as those are key parts of Autopilot. Tesla can’t read road signs that would be a good place to start
biggerdaddy123
If it's easy why hasn't Tesla done it yet?
elliott wadsworth Tesla can read signs. That ability is still being trained and tested through the neuro-network it’s seeing the signs and learning how we react when a sign appears (ie stop or yield) . The most recent update actually shows Tesla recognize construction zones
Once they roll FSD (presumably this year) we’ll see the full potential of the Tesla
K-Rizma The construction zones is not done off signs it off recognition of cones etc. It does the speed limits and stops and other things off gps just like the Audi knows and plans for the roundabouts etc with gps.
Poor Pidgeon :( ... F

That 'F' meme is getting really dull,
'set it to typical Audi driver' lol
Skellious LMAO
That would be Mad Max.
Set to a typical BMW driver it would be flashing the lights and zooming up & then creating a gap before zooming up again!!!
if a Tesla hit a pigeon like that it would be in the news constantly all day. "Tesla maliciously attacks pigeon" or something like that.
Trigger Troll you can’t turn on autopilot and go to sleep. All those they died would’ve died in the Etron.
"Tesla autopilot kills animal"
@Trigger Troll haha! Good One!
I appreciate the unbiased review that isn't entirely comparing every little thing to a Tesla, I'm sure it's not what most of your following is interested in but I love it.
At least some people understood 👍🏽
If everything else is no comparison to a Tesla why bother?
The fact that it doesn't warn you when it cant see lane marks, that just seems dangerous🤷
I've noticed that too
And even when it warns. That slight audio chime, like WTF.
It kind of does, the screen in the dashboard shows the Audi between two stripes (lanes). If the lines are green it can detect lanes, if the lines are grey it can't.
@@driftingstrangers3877 yes, but you are supposed to look the road, not the screen in front of you so you might not notice the green light
As far as I can tell these cars might be trained to find edges of roads based on sharp contrast. They’re pretty smart.
7:00 this kind of turning assistance functions off without any audible chime is incredibly negligent on Audi's part, and it will cause more accidents than what the system would prevent. It should have a chime. Edit: 6:40 rather
Most non-Tesla steer assist systems don't have a disengage warning. Hyundai/Kia LKAS/LFA has the same flaw, and the LEAF with Propilot I drove also suffers from this. You learn to check the icon regularly and be ready to steer, but it's still hugely unsafe IMO.
On corners too.. I'm not sure I'd ever use this. Disengaging silently on a corner when you're not expecting it could be fatal.
@@TonyHoyle Only if you treat it like Autopilot but if you had half a brain then you would know it's an assistant designed for boring straight roads.
Do not like the system then buy a Tesla that will freak you out with it's warning when you are not doing what you are supposed to be doing and that is paying full attention to the driving!
You'd just have constant chimes and warnings then.. That'd be utter pish. It's not an autopilot system, and it's certainly not something anyone should use on anything but motorways anyway. Not negligence, just people like you who don't understand.
Mark Ifi does have chime, chime can be shut off.
You have to test the Mercedes Benz drive assistant
Good on Audi but I'd still buy a Tesla at this point.
@Ziggi Mon You live in the past. Assembly nowadays is good and the design is a personal question of taste. Keep in mind that the Model3 is designed as a Level 4 or 5 autonomous car. And i never saw a Fiat that looks similar to a Tesla haha
Ziggi Mon still safer and more high techh
@Ziggi Mon you have never driven a Tesla and you're talking shit and being hypocritical btw
@Ziggi Mon wow you dumb obviously you haven't seen the new Tesla besides Tesla is the fastest electric car in the world...also it's the safest.. don't believe me? Search it on TH-camr or Google that's how I found out
@@arthurzlol ikr I saw on the safe test drives pages on google
Seems like it turns on and off randomly.
Maybe it's literally the case, because they want you to pay attention, they deliberately deactivate it randomly to reset your attention span. But the absence of bip is dangerous... Maybe the fact that it wasn't stable enough made the usage of a noise very annoying!
@@erwile It doesn't seem random to me, a lot of the time it seemed to dislike the design of our white lines here in the UK, the absence of a white line on the edge of the single carriageway makes it hard for the autopilot to see where the edge of the road is so it hugs close to the white center line as possible.
When the centreline jerks too much the car loses where the center is altogether.
I've got it on my car albeit an earlier version. Nevertheless it seems to me if you've got a nice set of white lines that aren't too bendy it'll do well. Arrows and dissappearance of white lines throws it off. You can almost feel when its in charge, its hard to describe, but the steering wheel gets heavier indicating that's in lane assist works. If the steering wheel gets light, it means it's lost the white lines.
So if the auto steering assist turns off due to a lack of lines or whatever, it doesn't play an audio alert... so if you missed that the "green lines" have gone out you're going "off road"!!
I think the I-Pace does the same thing.... no audio alert.
Maybe because it deactivates so quickly that a chime would be very annoying!
Maybe it vibrates the steering wheel?
even my toyota corolla hatchback will chime if the lines disappear...
I'm driving the car, I don't want it chiming at me every time it loses track of the lane markings, that would drive me insane.
I follow a lot of big and small tesla TH-cam channels. But must say yours is absolutely one of my favourite. Very good videos. Well done, and keep up your good work.
Good video, but I wouldn't say it was all that impressive - besides smoother braking in some instances, seems like a ways to go still to catch up to Tesla...realize it's not labelled as 'Autopilot', but seems to leave me wanting here...
wasnt impressive at all, even Comma.ai with there smartphone autopilot is moreaccurate and doesnt random disengage like this
yup. 10 years behind lol - originaö roadster had more range - what it can do better is regen charging and potential charging speed - no infrastructure though
the only thing that impresses me is when it tucks in for bikers overtaking
@@XFXAngel Yes... "smart phone" autopilot vs. driving a real huge SUV... that's the same thing.
I'm trying to understand what about this is "insanely impressive". Am I missing something? Is this the best competitor to Tesla's AP currently?
The "best competitor" right now is Nissan's Pro Pilot on the Leaf 2018 models and later. Most systems in use in other competitor cars are really just lane assist systems, which keeps you from departing the lane. Very few manufacturers like the idea of a "pilot" system, mostly as the safety issue is the fact that the fail-safe state is to give control back to the driver, and the issue with a "pilot" system is that people can become complacent with it.
No drive assists are still better than current Tesla AP on roads around me (tested couple weeks back). But nah, Audi's assist package is just garden variety. This kind of suites are avialable for most premium brands nowadays. It's just that it's in e-Tron.
not the best competitor to Autopilot this is just an alternative. this is probably like 5th place maybe further back..? i think he just test driving this. i would put this on par with Nissan's system, kinda dumb and basic, bit blind, can be little drunk hunting for lane markers if it isnt sure or can only see partial or one but it can do some basic stuff, like maintaining distance, slowing down and speeding up fairly smoothly. not sure if it would avoid parked cars on side of the road or if it would stop for them, we dont have that problem where i am so i haven't tested it when test driving.. then again im not sure if e-tron is doing that or just matter of it swinging to the center line with that weird biased most partial self driving systems have.
Volvo makes a decent system, but its still far behind Autopilot but i think its a step up from the e-tron/nissan system, in my opinion. here in the US at least the volvo system will slow down if it feels like needs to and it will avoid other cars its fairly aware of its surroundings, in terms of it ability to drive..its...its..okay? not best at cornering tight, does decent at maintaining, it can self park in most easy spots, including some wide open side street parking but angled bays it loses its shit and gets so confused unless you help it out. in terms of avoiding cyclists and parked cars, i have limited testing with it but i felt like it did okay, didn't feel confused by parked cars unless they were definitely out into the lane it will then slow down or try to figure it out go around or stop. even then few times where it felt like it didn't even see a parked car and got close passing it. i would say its basically like a first time licensed driver, not most confident, not most smooth but capable of figuring it out if give it space and time and help it out some it will help you out.
but there are others, Mercedes has one, BMW is working on something, Nissan has one, Cadillac has one, Audi, Volvo... im sure even more. heres my take, none of these systems are even capable of competing with Tesla, they are all competing amongst themselves with tesla way ahead. out of all the alternatives, i think Volvo system is currently most capable in the real world.. mercedes and Cadillac claim their system is better and closer to Tesla's but thus far, yet to see that, only clever thing so far i seen is eye tracking, mercedes did demo their system being able to turn down side streets and able to navigate itself, however, yet to see that system in the real world outside of a few demos.
As a model 3 owner it’s great to see other systems and how they perform. Thanks!
Definitely did not blur the speed :-D. Typical Audi.
wallyhall when?
XxProGamerxX 0:54
wallyhall what do you mean?
XxProGamerxX I had a stroke tryna read ur comment... Come again?
Ariana Please I see what u mean I thought you was talking to me but you was talking to someone else
Why are these videos addictive, i think its your voice
Very good video... this video gives me better confidence while using driver assistance in my new Audi etron suv
Heyyy very Cool Review!!! I really enjoy seeing the Audi Assist driving Systems working its always fascinated me! And now especially seeing you driving into Marlborough!! I use to love there almost 20 years ago now!! WOW love it!! 😃
The visualizations on the screen doesn't give you any of the info tesla does, and there's no warning tones either!
Ed E
I wonder if that's just a setting thing.
This seems like a huge flaw. There shouldn't be an option to disable the warnings either.
Funny enough almost all cars that have advance cruise control don't have a audio warning when it disengages (just visual, some cars like e-tron have lane warning steering vibrate when your to close to or over the line)
What it should do when it cuts off when turning or on a bend it should have a slight chime or steering vibrate , straight roads no chime should be needed (unless car distance auto limiter was also disabled)
I mean, at least the collision warning give you a sound notification 9:57.
@@unlucky5442 quiet though
Short answer: No it isn’t better than Tesla Autopilot.
Yes it is ;)
@@nicinici4777 no because TESLAS auto pilot is updatable so it's will get better ;)
@@GuardianTiger annnnd? By the etron you dont have to give your hand on the wheel, it recognise if your eyes on the road! ;) (in Austria this System works) tesla DONT have that and you CANT update this to a Tesla ;)
@@nicinici4777 lmao, whatever you say man.
Nici Nici for that reason etron is shit, tesla you dont need eyes on the road, Beside you dont need hands on the wheel as weel, it takes a couple of minutes to takes hands on the wheel, but you touch any buttom on the wheel and warning goes away.
You own a tesla? If you dont own one shut up.
Great video, thank you. Would appreciate if you could show the stop and go feature as well.
Please do more of ADAS system! Great test!
Have you had a good with Volvo pilot assist? I'd probably suggest it's more advanced than the Audi system but nowhere near the autopilot system. I use it all the time, motorways, dual carriageway, a roads like this video etc if you can borrow a Volvo S60 (pilot assist 3) that's the most advanced system but my s90 isn't far off (pilot assist 2).
Try the Volvo Pilot Assist (auto pilot)
I've tried both. Audi does a better job in the city and a bit comfortable on motorways.
Haha, you mean the thing that runs journalists over? :D
Nice one. More comparisons please with other driver assist system.
What I’ve experienced with my 2017 Audi S3 with Lane assist and adaptive cruise control and as well in our 2018 VW Polo with adaptive cruise control, is the if you come around a curve (without a car in front) and after the curve there’s a traffic stop, or a red light, with cars waiting (standing still); then the adaptive cruise control will ignore the cars waiting or filter them out, as parked cars, and the car will NOT stop behind the cars waiting, it will instead continue to drive (into them). Any chance you could test how the adaptive cruise control in the eTron handles this situation?
Come to Norway, we love Tesla Electric Cars here! 🇳🇴🇬🇧
[NO] - мαяιυѕ. ツ that's not a tesla tho
@@chicoferrazz he didn't say it was.... Stop assuming
Rusty Carlos Valdez I'm just mentioning
Dragon Jones he said Tesla electric cars
Hi ,trying to decide between Tesla S to Audi e-tron AL adaptive ? I didn’t like how the other car came from the right direction cut you and the system didn’t pick on it ! Would Tesla picked on it since it has additional cameras?
I would like to see if it does the "wake up braking" if you ignore the warning or if it just keeps going. Also if it stops if you keep ignoring it
About time. Someone with significant experience in auto pilot who can compare it to other autho makers.
As someone who uses autopilot daily, this system looks about as good at steering as my 2016 Denali was with it's lane keep assist. It's "steering" seems to be basically bouncing from side to side. This assistance seems very basic unfortunately.
From leaving Malborough to the Devizes roundabout, did you use the throttle or brakes? Or was the car in control all that time?
I gave this a like on the strength of the "typical Audi driver " comment alone. Made me chuckle
I thought your promise of tape on the steering wheel was going to be the equivalent of Nat promising a Lamingtons vid… but you've proved me wrong!
Good to see this comparison of assistance systems. Look forward to more.
I just want to see the comparison between a fully enabled Tesla Hardware 3.0 (with latest update) & the Audi Driver Assistant. Tesla Driver has been using a “Hobbled” Hardware 2.0 (The hardware system from 2017). That’s like comparing an iPhone 6 to an iPhone XS Max. Using Hardware 3.0 would make it more like comparing the latest MacPro Computer to the iPhone...
I did not understand what was so special with roundabouts? It looks to me like it just slows down for known intersections, probably gathered from maps data. Same with the curve icon, I don't think it's vision based? I'm curious what happens if the maps aren't up to date and the car thinks there's a roundabout in the middle of a straight road. Will it slow down?
Most likely you just override it if that happened
Let me know what other car system to try next ⚡️
Volvo!
Go for the second worst EV and talk through the positive points of that one.
Merc
Volvo
BMW
one that doesnt kill flying pigeons!
Thank you Kanye, Very Cool
Please tryout New Golf with travel assist, which I suppose is probably very similar to the E trons system
Any chance you can do a special test comparing several assist features on differing vehicles, on zigzag Hill in Dorset?
You killed the pigeon!!! You pigeon murderer!!! 😜😜😜
Edit: the zigzag lines are here in Singapore too...
As someone who loves driving the speed limit (when conditions allow), I'm more excited about the adaptive speed settings the car has over the driving assist. Wish my cruise control worked the same. I'd almost never have to worry about my speed again!
My parents have an earlier version of this and I'm quite impressed by the speed limit stuff - I've not yet seen it caught out and get the limit wrong definitely a feature I wouldn't mind having. They have lane assist but it only really works for changing lanes on multi-lane roads unlike in this video and the keep distance feature occasionally gets confused and won't accelerate properly back to normal speed of its own accord.
Try the 2020 Hyundai Sonata drive assist , I heard it's thirst system out now
Would like you to test other auto assist cars. Good job!
That looked like you were driving through Marlborough there? Don't know if you've done it yet but if you drive from Chisledon> Hodson>Wroughton to Devizes, via Avebury (A4361)...some very challenging road conditions along there for systems like this.
I live in Calne so do these roads a lot, AP is pretty good except for the stones and the 2 bends before them 👍🏽
Been watching your videos for a while so very surprised to see you head into my home town! I'm interested to know how well my Peugeot e-208 "autopilot" system will work - just waiting for it to be delivered in the summer. Not expecting it to be close to the Tesla or Audi.
Is this feature available in the US?
in Cyprus we do have zig-zag lines as well, they come before and after a pedestrian crossing. Hopefully Audi's system will record all these nuances and learn to obey them in the future.
Cyprus was a British colony up until about 1960 after 82 years of control, so I dare say the roads took some influence from the UK
The lack of audio cues and the bouncing to the right and left is a bit disconcerting. Interesting to see the competition though, thanks for sharing!
Yeah, it seems to turn the corners really bad too, like it's just a PID controller, and a badly tuned one at that.
By the looks of it, My 2019 Kia Ceed actually does a better job of keeping you centered within the lane. Rather than the kind of ping pong effect. Maybe try out an eNiro?
how about the time to do a full charge of the e-tron ?
Thank you for showcasing the differences between Tesla's Autopilot (AP) and other manufacturers' attempt at the same technology. It definitely helps to inform drivers of other vehicles about Tesla's AP.
I wish model 3 had a lanekeeping assist/follow instead of the autopilot that really locks the wheel and allows almost no steering input without disengaging. Also phantom breaking is super annoying in the model 3.
Is this autonomous driving or is it just following data from camera and sensors?
What I would like to know if the max turn angle on this against the EU-restricted Tesla AutoPilot??
I drive a q7, same tec. There are two options in settings with lane assist: late and early. If its' bouncing in lane then it's on late. This system is no different than a tesla and can be options on most new cars like ford, jeep, well anything really. As tesla owner's should know the gov has mandated a ten sec rule. If hand contact is lost for more than ten secs system disengages. The difference between the systems, auto pilot and lane assist, is tesla owner's climb in the back and crash with "auto pilot" on. Lane assist wording doesn't leave customers with an auto pilot feeling, given they should know better anyways. No system is perfect today but i use this system 90% of the time between speeds at 0-80 mph. Btw, love tesla and well any vehicle with this system. I will never own another car without it and soon neither will you.
Where do you stand if there is an accident on auto drive?
I'm interested to see this compared to OpenPilot. I feel like my experience wIth Volvos system is very similar to Audi's
Seems very much on par with the EyeSight system on a Subaru. A good adaptive cruise, with a fair amount of lane-keeping, but not lane centering.
Will they keep updating the system like tesla does?
Im a big proponent of assistance system that depend only on car embarked sensors, and not on any "cloud" or "collaborative" networks.
That being said, it really seems like having the GPS assist the autonomous system in slowing down the car before a round about or a curve, is a very powerful safety layer to complement onboard sensors.
I also think manufacturers should thrive to improve lane assist and lane recognition , before trying to go full AI.
I also believe assistance systems should be ultra tunable by the user, so as to create assistance profiles in which, for exampl, you can still have automatic minimum distance keeping with the car in front, even when you control the brake, accelerator, and steering.
I find the lack of audio cues a bad design choice. It would be great that I let you know when it goes off
The smoother braking sounds better than Tesla. My 3 can definitely be jerky at times when slowing down. Good competition for Tesla.
14:59 Why did he say "uh uh uh." LOL
Could you do this with the Mercedes C300 Coupe with Driving Assist??. I'm getting that car in a few months but would love to see it's Driving Assistant package in a real life test :)
The UK isn't the only country with zig zag lines.
Ireland has them too.
Ye but living in ireland also it’s definitely not as much as in the UK depending on the area obv but roads in dublin atleast are very autopilot friendly when i mean dublin not city centre lol
Odias Ukcamaj ‘British roads’ I guess you could take that to mean British Isles and then Ireland is included anyway.
@@odiasukcamaj i suppose it might not be that common in some places, in my town in the Dublin suburbs their are 10+ zebra crossing so I guess I just see them more than most.
@@matthewmaylin2268 Not many people from Ireland like being lumped in with Britain in that sense.
Also in Ireland zig zag line are only really used for zebra crossings, not traffic lights
Chris Doherty ye i only really see them where its a school crossing etc
6:43 "look at how well it guides us around...' smh.
yeah i lost it there
just like that lane assist
Tesla turned on it's "bounce in lane" just recently. It comes in handy when if forget to turn on autopilot.
The Audi e-tron is a pidgeon killer !
Hugging the line seems a touch to aggressive, but I’d definitely like my Tesla to take a position slightly towards the centre of the road: it tends to be slightly unnaturally to the left versus where I’d put the car
I have driven a Hyundai santa fe, that did the same thing. it was so cool.
The reason why the lane assist does not keep you in the middle when you take your hands off is that the system learns the hand you are primary holding the steering. For example if you are holding, it permanently with the right hand, the weight of your hand would turn the car slightly to the right. This is why the side assist pushes against the weight of your hand (to the left) and holds you in the middle of the lane when your hand are ON the steering.
If you are taking your hands off, it expects that you will take hands back on in a view seconds. That is why you are leaving the middle and bouncing from left to right.
You can try to leave your hands off for a longer time (on a highway) and nudge the steering from time to time. The system will keep you in the middle of the lane.
I did try this on my audi and it still struggles a little. There is an option called swerve assist and keeping this on significantly improves. Sadly the lane assist is still a bit laggy. I hope audi will fix it over next few years.
17:49 I didn't like that move... It went in the middle, it should go to the right or stay on the left line! Definitely going too fast for that curve.
5:30 what happens if you ignore the warnings to touch the wheel?
I think it behaves like my Skoda Superb. It would make a loud beep first with a warning. And then it would start breaking in short bursts to alert the driver further. After that, I think it will turn on the hazard lights and slowly stop the vehicle.
If you don't want your Tesla anymore I'll gladly put up with autopilot!!!
Is that little yellow thing on the steering wheel?
only to see easier the steer is turning (by itselfs)
The fact that the car anticipates and slows down/accelerates as speed limit changes is really nice and this is one thing I have to do manually in the Tesla. I do wish that it were as progressive as the Audi.
What I don't like about the system is that it is basically GPS based. So if, say, a new roundabout has been built and is not into the car's GPS data, I'm pretty sure that it's not going to slow down for you... Also, the lack of audible cues is quite disturbing. Have you combed through the settings and found whether you could get such cues? Having to look back and forth between the instrument cluster and the road doesn't strike me as exactly safe :p
Any plans taking it on motorway?
Volvo is one of the best adaptive cruise control systems I’ve used for lane keeping.
30 seconds with Audis adaptive assist on the road and there is the first traffic death ... still questions? 🤪
The pigeon was drawn to the 4 wedding rings...
@Trigger Troll Nope, Tesla has not killed anyone. But it looks like this Audi AI assistant very likely will in its current state.
@Trigger Troll Cars don't kill people yet, drivers are still responsible for that.
@Trigger Troll Well there is a lot of things that people should know the safety instructions of, it's not like you can save people from being dumbasses.
The reason mini roundabouts are recognized as intersections is that they are basically the same thing as an European equal priority intersection without traffic lights and traffic signs where you have to give way to any traffic from your right.
"It likes to hug the line" - you mean, if you come across another Audi e-tron, they will smash off each other's mirrors? I always take a good distance from somebody that close to the line, because they are probably distracted or in another way not aware of where they are on the road.
Lol ikr
I have this car and I honestly think this must be one of the worst assist systems I've ever tried. The steering assist is so bad it often drifts so hard that you actually cross either one of the lines. I preferred the cheap and simple assist we had in our previous car, the Hyundai Ioniq. Also the adaptive cruise was better in the Ioniq actually working through roundabouts at any speed. Have driven most Teslas and Tesla is probably 10 years ahead when it comes to these functions, they are simply in a completely different league. Quite amazed of the lacking technology Audi has presented in this car when it comes to these functions and even more surprised that the author of this videos is so impressed by it.
I would not feel save with this Green line System. Can‘t look at the display and the traffic at the same time.
I'd say these are the positives I take away from it in comparison to Autopilot:
- When you pasted that truck, it started to accelerate quickly. Autopilot tends to wait a while after the vehicle is out of the way before acting on it.
- The car seemed to do speed limits by the sign, not change speed limit at the sign.
- I assume it automatically changed the speed up when you hit that national speed limit? If so, that's neat.
- Quickly reacted to lane line changes, Autopilot tends to lag behind a bit or 'smooth' movements too heavily sometimes.
In terms of the Autopilot pros I take away from this:
- Autopilot seems to be smoother on the corners, following the curve better not swerving in and out. (But Autopilot does have 8 cameras to be fair, it can see a lot more!)
- Autopilot keeps more in the center of the lane. (However, this causes it to hit every pothole possible in the UK)
Next Week:
Welcome back everybody to Audi Driver i hope you are doing really well...
This system is just like the seat tarraco se technology system
I am wondering what it would be used for ? since it requires constant driver input, does it perform better on a Highway due to lines being more consistent? I feel that either I drive or the car drives, not both, perhaps we need to wait for these systems to mature?
the system is advertised as "an Assist" meaning it correct your action when it notice an obvious mistake, not the other way around, like you notice the driver said Tesla Autopilot is like handling a baby where YOU correct the Autopilot for mistake instead. Why he like this one is because how it makes driving easier.
@@xponen You missing my point. I am wondering what the benefits of this system are? I am not questioning that it's an assist or any other system or comparing to another manufacturer.
Naturally I'm pleased that we are heading towards self driving cars, but this systems seems very early, Beta like system. Maybe in 3-5 years we will see systems that are more usable.
@@RemoteSpeed007 the benefit of driver Assist is that it prevent mistakes. For example it vibrate steering wheel & nudge it when it detect the car veered into opposite lane, it also apply the brakes to prevent collision, and gradually accelerate/de-accelerate to obey speed limit, it also indicate & prepare the driver for intersection & roundabout. Also if you notice it also bias the car on the left or centre side of the road to care for motorcyclist.
@@xponen This video shows the system is not very reliable, so many would not use it in its current state.
@@RemoteSpeed007 this car is not self-driving, it's however can Assist the driver when/where it can, it's always Activated as part of the safety system. It is like ABS, it doesn't have 'authority' over the car, it don't work without a driver...
No pigeons where hurt in the making of this video. . .
Omg, that yellow steering wheel icon triggers me so much. My 2005 VW Passat 3C has this on if the steering lock can´t be disengaged. I just hate it lmao
what does he zigzag line mean?
LMAO that pigeon
I've had the exact same pigeon incident on a bike. :(
Keep on mind that audi still didnt activated laser scanners in front. SW update is coming to enable advanced autopilot.
Link or any proof of truth?
Sorry to be a bum but at 2:25 the speed limit is not 70Mph it's 60 as there is only one lane in the opposite direction and it's not a dual Dual Carrageway. National speed limit signs on UK roads do not necessarily mean it's 70 mph, it's depends on the road.
Did you just fly through a speed camera at 9:34? I hope it was turned off :o
No speed cameras in Wiltshire
@@TeslaDriver Isn't that what the lines on the road are there for though? I always assumed so
@@Chainz45 It is what they're for,, however about 8 or so years ago the Wiltshire Council closed the "Camera Safety Partnership". The lines must be left over from when they were active.
